Diet Coke is specifically the one used because of all the sodas I've seen it reacts the most powerfully. Has to do with the specific mix of sweeteners. The easier-to-clean-ness is just icing on the cake.

This argument can only be won by the way that this instructable beat the youtube video, that is who is hotter. However, all of you are dudes, so no one wins. My two sense on which prank wins, I prefer to hear a hot Latina curse than some white dude!

well..Im sorry about that,I would not say that I stole from your actual video because I have never watched it before;However the mentos-coke thing has never been a secret,so what I did was just MY version of it and I used the same elements and technics of my instructionals videos using needle and thread.
